About this study
Official title: A Randomized, Open Label Study of the Effect of First Line Treatment With Xeloda in Combination With Avastin and Either Short Course Irinotecan or Short Course Oxaliplatin on Progression-free Survival in Patients With Metastatic Colorectal Cancer
This 2-arm study was designed to evaluate the efficacy and safety of 2 treatment regimens of Xeloda and Avastin, with either irinotecan or oxaliplatin administered for the first 12 cycles, as first line treatment in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer. Patients were randomized to receive 2-weekly cycles of treatment with either: 1) Xeloda, Avastin and oxaliplatin; or 2) Xeloda, Avastin and irinotecan. After 9 cycles, patients continued to receive maintenance treatment with Xeloda + Avastin. The anticipated time on study treatment was until disease progression, and the target sample size was 100-500 individuals.
- Conditions
- Colorectal Cancer
- Being tested
- capecitabine [Xeloda], bevacizumab [Avastin], oxaliplatin, irinotecan

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Progression-free Survival (PFS) in U.S. Patients Only
PFS was defined as the time from the date of randomization to the first documented occurrence of disease progression or death due to any cause.
Measured: From first patient enrolled up to approximately 48 months
